Who We Are
-
Royal View After School Program is a play-based, child-led program running five days a week from 3:30–5:15pm, in partnership with a local neighbourhood school. One of our primary focuses is accessibility, ensuring the program is welcoming, inclusive, and available to families in our surrounding community. Our heart is to create a safe and welcoming space where every child feels known, valued, and loved.
The program is child-led, meaning children are encouraged to take the lead in choosing activities that interest them, while being closely supervised and supported by trained staff. There is a strong emphasis on physical activity and outdoor play—you’ll almost always find us outside whenever weather and space allow. Through fun and engaging experiences, we support children’s physical and emotional well-being while exploring important life skills such as hygiene, healthy eating, and positive relationships.
Activities include organized sports, outdoor free play, choose-your-own-adventure play stations, crafts, STEM projects, movie days, and more—all within a safe environment that encourages movement, creativity, confidence, and self-discovery.

Meet the Team
we love hearing from you!
“Our experience with the after school program has been absolutely wonderful. My children look forward to going every single day; they’re excited from the moment school ends and can’t wait to get there. It’s become such a special part of their routine that even on weekends, they ask if they can go!
What really speaks volumes is how hard it is to get them to leave at pick-up time. They’re always so engaged, happy, and having fun that they never want to go home. As a parent, there’s nothing more reassuring than knowing your kids are not only safe but genuinely thriving and enjoying themselves.
Recently, I spoke to them about the possibility of them being on the school bus next year. Their first question was, “Can we still go to aftercare?”
We’re incredibly grateful for such a caring, fun, and enriching environment. It truly feels like a second home for our children.”

“Our experience with After School Program has been nothing short of incredible.
The staff truly care about the children and it’s evident in the activities they choose, the way they help the kids navigate conflicts and the values they teach within their programming.
Upon arrival to pick up my kids at the end of the day, I am often greeted with groans because I’m too early! They don’t like to miss a day at ASP, and that speaks volumes about the program and, most importantly, the staff running it.
We have been so blessed by the opportunity to participate in the program and grateful we have had that privilege for a few years!”
